Chapter 193: Those who pretend to be forced will be slapped in the face!
Zhao Shiguang entered first, and Wu Lili turned around and looked at Zhang Shaojie with deep meaning.
Zhang Shaojie didn't know what he meant, and walked side by side with Teresa Teng.
Teresa Teng was unimpeded and was allowed in.
Zhang Shaojie was about to enter, but the waiter in front of the door suddenly stopped: "This gentleman, please show the invitation!" This is a wealthy banquet, and only people with extremely high status can enter! β
Teresa Teng was surprised: "Shaojie came with me!" β
The waiter said arrogantly: "No, Miss Deng, you have an invitation, but this gentleman doesn't!" The parties inside are all upper-class figures, but not just anyone can go in, Miss Deng don't be embarrassed by the villain! β
Zhang Shaojie's nose was crooked, and he was about to leave with his sleeves!
Teresa Teng was more serious, pulled Zhang Shaojie and said: "See clearly, this is Mr. Zhang Shaojie, a famous writer with a good reputation in Hong Kong, but he is not an ordinary person!" What's more, he is a good friend of mine, and if you don't let him in, I won't attend this banquet! β
The waiter in front of the door smiled bitterly and hurriedly persuaded: "Miss Deng, you are an important guest!" Didn't you embarrass the host of the banquet by your absence? β
"If the host of the banquet intends to embarrass Shaojie, I would rather not attend the banquet!" Teresa Teng said.
The dispute between Zhang Shaojie, Teresa Teng and the waiter alarmed the owner in the villa.
A man in his 30s, accompanied by everyone, walked out and said with a smile: "This gentleman, since he is a friend of Miss Deng, please come in too!" Miss Deng's friend, and our friend's friend, please"
Wu Lili suddenly walked out and said to Teresa Teng: "That young talent, named Li Longsheng, is only in his 30s, born in a Southeast Asian plantation family, in addition to owning shares in the family business, his private is to establish a shipping company in Hong Kong with assets of more than 100 million. And this Mr. Li has neglected his personal feelings because he attaches too much importance to his career, so he has not married yet."
Zhang Shaojie frowned.
What is Wu Lili doing? How do you look, a matchmaker's face?
Teresa Teng didn't care and said, "Oh, it turned out to be a descendant of a big family." β
Li Longsheng was fascinated by this and said: "It's not a big family, but the family business also provides employment opportunities for more than 30,000 people, which can be regarded as a modest contribution to social and economic development." β
A group of people entered the field.
During the banquet, there is a classical band that plays dance music slowly. Pairs of men and women dance affectionately on the stage in pairs.
There are also people who talk to each other politely about some business, real estate, and stocks.
Suddenly, the host said, "On this delightful and cheerful night, we are all together. Talk about life, exchange ideals, and enjoy this beautiful night life. What is even more honored is that on such a beautiful night, Miss Teresa Teng came in person to participate in our party, come, we applaud Teresa Teng, and hope that Teresa Teng's song will let us wash away our sorrows and add happiness! β
In a cheer, Teresa Teng took the stage.
Zhang Shaojie is sitting opposite Li Longsheng.
Accompanying Zhang Shaojie at the same table were Wu Lili, Zhao Shiguang, and Li Longsheng's sister Li Yuxin.
The remaining vacant seat is Teresa Teng's.
It seems that everyone has discussed it, there is a tacit understanding to talk about investment, company assets, and the data that comes out of everyone's mouths is astronomical for ordinary citizens.
"Hey, I made less money in the stock market last month, invested 20 million, mislistened to the advice of several financial experts, threw it too early, and only made more than 3 million. If I continue to hold shares according to my own wishes, my real estate stocks can earn at least 5 million more! Li Longsheng was quite high-spirited.
Zhao Shiguang said with a smile: "Li Shao, investment and career are both bumper!" Nowadays, many shipowners in Hong Kong have no business, but you can have endless orders, just shipping Hong Kong goods to Malaysia, you can earn 20 million or 30 million a year. β
"Hehe, the light of the family business, so there is no shortage of orders!" Li Longsheng said with a fake humble expression, "However, I not only rely on the care of the family business, but also through my own efforts, I have received a lot of orders in North America and Europe. Now I have 170,000 tons of self-owned ships, which is far from enough to meet the order, and I have chartered a 100,000-ton ocean shipping vessel from the charter king, and the annual rent paid to the charter king is 2 million US dollars. One-third of the annual profit is given to the charter king, which is equivalent to working for the charter king! β
Wu Lili interjected: "Li Dashao, can you take care of my old Zhao's business?" Of his more than 300,000 tons of ships, only 100,000 tons have orders, and the rest are idle, and the monthly bank interest and crew wages are all worrying."
Li Longsheng said: "Okay! You can lease me 100,000 tons, and I pay $2 million a year for rent, what do you think? β
Zhao Shiguang nodded hurriedly and said happily: "Thank you Li Shao for taking care of the business!" β
Zhang Shaojie yawned when he heard it, the depression of the shipping industry is irreversible, and the shipowners who are getting more and more hard are still pretending to be forced here, which is boring.
The Miss Li beside her kept staring at Zhang Shaojie.
Seeing his boring yawn, Miss Li suddenly pretended to be naΓ―ve and asked, "Brother Shaojie, I heard that you are a famous writer and screenwriter in Hong Kong, you should be very profitable, right?" I'm interested in writing, film, and I want to invest in the cultural and entertainment industry, I don't know how much money a writer like you can make? β
Everyone looked at Zhang Shaojie one after another.
Zhang Shaojie was stunned and said: "Well, I'm not as good as some rich people to eat!" β
"Great writers, how much income can they earn every month, people are very curious?" Wu Lili said with a smile.
"Can I tell someone?" Miss Li's eyes blinked.
Li Longsheng and Zhao Shiguang seemed to be smiling, and they seemed to have a sense of superiority in wealth.
The expressions on their faces were clearly mocking - what about Hong Kong's first-class writer, who is just a high-level wage earner with an estimated annual income of several million, right?
Zhang Shaojie suddenly realized, it turned out that everyone wanted to humiliate him with his earning capacity?
Sneered in my heart.
However, on the surface, Zhang Shaojie deliberately made a distressed appearance and said: "My arithmetic grades have always been bad!" I never knew how much I could earn. So, whoever has a calculator, paper, pen and ink, I'm going to do the math."
Zhao Shiguang handed him a golden pen and a notebook. Li Longsheng asked the waiter to find a calculator.
Zhang Shaojie calculated matter-of-factly: "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty published two episodes last month, and the average sales in Hong Kong is 110,000 copies, 20% royalty, and a price of HK$15. Therefore, the publishing income of "Datang" in Hong Kong is 660,000 Hong Kong dollars, and Wansheng Publishing Company in Taiwan gives me 500,000 Hong Kong dollars per episode, so there are 1 million Hong Kong dollars. In the book "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", it is about 1.66 million Hong Kong dollars a month. Nothing more, no less. β
After hearing Zhang Shaojie's introduction to the manuscript fee of "Datang". Everyone's faces froze!
The manuscript fee of 1.66 million yuan a month is comparable to the profits of Zhao Shiguang and Li Longsheng's shipping business.
Zhang Shaojie didn't feel the shock of everyone at all, and continued to settle accounts by himself.
"The Rise of a Great Power is published every month, which can bring me about 800,000 Hong Kong dollars a month."
"The "Resident Evil" series is also being published in serial, and the sales are very average, and it can reach 600,000 a month."
"By the way, "The Rise of a Great Power" was published in the People's Publishing House of Chinese mainland, and 1 million copies were sold in 8 days, with an income of 600,000 yuan, which translates to about 2 million Hong Kong dollars! However, domestic publishing will not be settled until half a year, so it will not be counted as this month's income."
"There is also my movie script "Modern Bodyguard", which can be written in three days, and 5% of the box office dividends earned five or six million Hong Kong dollars"
Zhang Shaojie said in a calm tone: "Hey, writing is so hard!" There is no rest for 30 days a month. Create more than 300,000 words a month to earn 3 million Hong Kong dollars in manuscript fees. It's better to buy stocks and easily earn more than 10 million on Wharf and Jianing Real Estate."
Everyone present no longer had the slightest smile on their faces, and they all froze!
Half an hour later, He Lili, Zhao Shiguang, and the Li brothers and sisters gasped one by one - it was too perverted.
Zhang Shaojie still felt that everyone's expressions were not exciting enough, and complained: "I make millions a month, and now the price is so high, especially if I have to invest in some high-tech industries, is that enough to spend?" I made a movie for my "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", and the production cost on the set was not high, only about 7 million, but for the post-production of special effects, I invited an industrial light and magic studio in the United States, and they turned out to be good, burning six or seven million dollars a month! Since September this year, I have been spending money like water, and I have to say that in February and March next year, the production of special effects for the film will be able to end! Because of the industrial light and magic of the cheating father, I can only sleep six hours a day, and the rest of the time, I am desperately writing to make money in order to satisfy this money-burning machine."
Li Longsheng smiled reluctantly: "Heroes come out of teenagers, and talented people come out of the country, I didn't expect that after Jin Yong, Hong Kong would have a first-rate writer like Zhang Shaojie!" β
Teresa Teng finished singing a song and said with a smile: "Shaojie, what are you talking about, it seems to be very speculative!" β
Zhang Shaojie said with a smile: "These gentlemen and ladies are very interested in writing, let me explain the writing industry to them!" β
"Really?" Teresa Teng smiled and went to Zhang Shaojie's side, and in front of everyone, she affectionately sandwiched a piece of food and fed Zhang Shaojie.
Zhang Shaojie enjoys gentle service.
Li Longsheng couldn't help but sulk secretly, blood was dripping in his heart, it turned out that the goddess in his heart was actually a famous flower, and what he liked was a cream boy like Zhang Shaojie!
The whole banquet did not end until 8:30 p.m.
After the end, Miss Li thought about it, followed, and said to Zhang Shaojie: "Zhang Shaojie, this is my business card, I have time to contact by phone!" Although people are not as rich as you, but there are tens of millions of private money, I happen to be interested in the cultural and entertainment industry, I don't know, can you give me some advice? β
Zhang Shaojie smiled: "The cultural and entertainment industry is different from the general industry. It needs to be more patient and professional than doing traditional industries. Laymen, investing in industry, real estate, or speculative investment in this industry may not have good results! β
Miss Li wanted to have an in-depth exchange, Zhang Shaojie smiled indifferently, got into the car with Teresa Teng, and ignored her.
The Li brothers and sisters watched Zhang Shaojie's car go away, and their faces didn't look good.
Li Long was angry about Teresa Teng's intimacy with Zhang Shaojie, and Li Yuxin humbly asked someone for investment questions for the first time because of how old she was growing, but Zhang Shaojie didn't bother to pay attention to her, which hurt her self-esteem!
"Zhang Shaojie, you wait!" Li Yuxin stomped his feet and said, "I'll let you regret your arrogance one day!" I vow to create a cross-border, film and television giant, and in the future, when I develop, I will drive you out of the market, so that all publishers and film companies will refuse to publish your works and invest in your films because they are afraid of me! β
Li Longsheng said gloomily: "Sister, in this matter, my brother supports you!" If you are interested in developing in the cultural and entertainment industry, my brother will invest 30 million in you."
